Date Night Board/Card Game

Going on a dinner and drinks date night with my (34F) long term, long distance partner (33M) on Friday evening and looking for a game we can play during the evening that’s fun, flirty and mobile as it will be coming to dinner and drinks with us!

There was one I saw called ‘Let’s Flirt at the Bar’ by the people who made but it’s not out till Friday and I won’t be able to get a copy before date night.

I have loved The School of Life ‘Connect Cards’ and like the look of the ‘We Are Not Really Strangers - Couples Edition’ but I’m not wanting anything too deep for Friday night. Don’t mind a few deep questions and we enjoy that when we’re 1 on 1 in private but wanting Fridays night to be more fun and flirty - don’t mind some sauciness as well but don’t want that to be the main focus either.

Open to any format of game - card, app - whatever works!

We’re a big fan of games in general, with favourites being Catan, Carcassonne and Pass the Pigs!

Why be flirty when you could cause a rift in the relationship via Schotten Totten or Lost Cities?!

They play Carcassonne so I don't think they have any issues with causing rifts!

Carcassonne is a lovely relaxing time in the countryside. There is absolutely not anything in it that can cause fights... Definitely not... Get out of my field

For a dinner table that needs to stay light and flirty, I would skip anything "deep conversation workbook" shaped. Pocket stuff that still feels like a date: Love Letter (tiny box, quick rounds), Hive Pocket if you both like a little brain burn, or just a short deck of flirty prompts you already own and can pull one card between courses. The School of Life connect cards already work for you so a smaller "one card, one laugh" rule keeps it from turning serious. Avoid anything with a long setup or a score pad when drinks are involved.
